• Fragment Hunters is now free to play! - 27 April 2024

  Hey Hunters, You read that correctly, Fragment Hunters is not only back from retirement and available again, but it is now also completely free to play! So hop in your starships and have some fun! I'll repeat the current status of the project here once more for those who missed the previous announcements: Fragment Hunters is likely not going to receive further updates. When I started this project, it was far above my skill level, and because I was so far out of my depth, the game ended up fighting its own identity, becoming a rather mediocre product throughout. Fixing the current design-issues with Fragment Hunters would require an investment on my part that I'm simply unable to make, in part due to it having been built on the unity game engine. Simply put: I have to move forward! That's a good thing, because it means there are loads of exciting projects on the horizon. It's going to be…
